Divorce Your Diet is about just that –teaching readers how to break up with diets and food beliefs that have not served them well in finding health. I am focused on what I can do to help people better understand their bodies and, more specifically, how to feed their bodies in a more healthful way. This book strives to teach people healthier ways to replace what they already eat. While educating readers on ways to keep their bodies healthy, Divorce Your Diet will also introduce techniques on how readers can become more in tune with themselves and their health. People have traded diet for diet and yo-yo back and forth until they give up. The goal of Divorce Your Diet is to teach people that health can be intuitive and that by swapping out some ingredients for healthier ones, we can start to listen to and understand our bodies on a deeper level and meet them where they need us.

This book shows the world of feelings of the affected person. Selva captures it finely in its pages and tells it chronologically from the most incipient steps in the reception of a diagnosis to the full assumption of a reality.To be able to access this knowledge is a jewel not to be missed by anyone interested in Lewy Body Disease: professionals, people affected, carers. But this is not the greatest achievement of the writing; the book manages to pierce the layer of general ignorance on the subject, allowing to know, raise awareness and assume the existence of this disease, unknown by people whose information comes from the media.“I have no doubt that Selva’s book will positively impact the lives of many people, increasing knowledge and changing behaviours. This conquest has not it’s origin on knowing how to write, but is reached when words come from feelings, something that miraculously occurs without obeying the will” (extract from the prologue).

In this new book, Trainini and his team attempt a step forward and make a series of proposals that come to complete cardiac anatomy, physiology and mechanics. Reading this new investigation is a pleasure that demands continuous attention, so that our “neuronal boxes” do not rebel against the effort it means to sometimes destroy what we have firmly installed in them. The text should be read slowly, as it was never easy to tread in swamp-limited grounds and, as in the ascent to the summit of a difficult mountain, stop now and then to take a breath and enjoy the view as we get near the peak, where we will see the final landscape of the new vision. Then we will be conscious that the effort was worthwhile. In the first proposition of the research the authors study the anatomical and histological study of the myocardium, which defines a continuous, spiraling muscle, an integral piece that in order to fulfill its muscle function needs a supporting point, the cardiac fulcrum. The myocardium is inserted at its origin and end into this nucleus with tendinous, cartilaginous and even osseus structure, according to the specimen analyzed, located below and in front of the aorta. In this first proposition, splendidly documented, there is also an important contribution regarding the friction generated between the muscle layers in the mechanism of cardiac contraction Afterward, the authors analyze the left ventricular endocardial and epicardial electrical activation sequence with three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping using a Carto navigation and mapping system, which allows a three-dimensional anatomical representation with electrical activation and propagation maps. Later on, the authors focus in the physiology and understanding of the suction mechanism that is explained about the persistent contraction of the ascending segment during the onset of the active protodiastolic phase. The authors describe a series of personal studies and investigations which define and clarify the three-stage cardiac mechanics with the concept of the scientifically-based suction phase, an active process that the authors explain as never before, integrating hydraulics and physics, disciplines not usually adequately incorporated to evaluate cardiac mechanics and the definition of mechanical suction pump. Undoubtedly, the fast changes produced in cardiac imaging techniques will allow their use to understand the myocardial three-dimensional structure and its coupling with the new physiological concepts of cardiac mechanics. We are facing a unique text, different, provocative. It is a creation that will demand a hundred percent of your attention, to sort out the new pathways that open before our eyes with original investigations and proposals in the limits of the unknown. —Miguel Angel García Fernández School of Medicine, Complutense University of Madrid, España The true secret of cardiac mechanics is found deep inside the myocardium. At a glance, the cardiac muscle does not show its most hidden treasure. Only with an adequate dissection the mystery is unraveled and the cardiac fulcrum emerges between the muscle fibers. A chondroid anatomical structure that attaches the continuous myocardium at its ends. A support that allows torsion/detorsion motions. A supporting point working as the lever any muscle needs. This myocardium with helical structure explains a large part of cardiac pathophysiology. The beginning of this mystery led to explore along more complex pathwaysand evaluate a three-stage heart with an intermediate stage between systole and diastole, the suction phase. Hidden mysteries, intrigues revealed after so many years of a classical cardiac anatomy, possible hypotheses and new concepts to ponder, are under the magnifying glass of this scientific study. Along these pages, the questions presented in this investigation were solved and explained in detail with the different studies performed. Other enigmas were jointly and interdisciplinary clarified from different perspectives. It was necessary to incorporate not strictly medical knowledge for the complex understanding of the involved mechanisms, which could not be revealed through a single discipline. We never imagined that the beginning of this investigation would cause uncertainty and curiosity. Nothing more thrilling than submitting works to be evaluated and discussed collectively. New thoughts emerge from the critical and complementary view, from the possible to the real. Often something is built from simplicity, but the responsibility lies in sharing it to allow a common growth. This investigation has had a main objective, that of regarding a hypothesis with a new look that might contribute to the cardiac structure-function and solve pathologies. Fulcrum and Torsion of the Helical Myocardium invites to consider the cardiac organ as a true hydraulic pump.

For those searching for the evidence base for the optometric care of strabismus and amblyopia, look no further. In her book, Pilar Vergara puts parents behind the eyes of their children with amblyopia and strabismus so they can understand how they see. She discusses, in lay terms, the causes and symptoms of amblyopia and strabismus, the effects of these disorders on a person's self confidence, and their ability to perform well in school and sports. She carefully explains different treatment options for these disorders ranging from the traditional medical approaches, such as patching and surgery, to more innovative and more effective treatmetns, such as the use of different kinds of lenses, filters, syntonic phototherapy, and optometric vision therapy. Her statements are backed up with an extensive list of validating scientific research references in the appendix. Pilar uses her 25 years of clinical experience with hundreds of patients, as well as the experiences of other behavioral optometrists worldwide, to illustrate that a child or adult does not have to live with the deficits and disadvantages resulting from amblyopia or strabismus.

Myocardial Torsion is a book different from others, simply because this book is unique, unusual, and I dare say with admiration, it is a curious book, partly magical, full of personality, for initiatory readers, revealing, provocative, challenging. The book has the infrequent peculiarity of being based, to a great extent, on original personal and multidisciplinary investigations, granting it an important extra value. The authors define their purpose since the firsts pages of the book: to provide solidity, validity and even more to Torrent Guasps concepts. This is certainly a different book in its structure, content and elaboration. It is a text that the reader may admire or criticize, that may create skepticism or surprise at the new data it propose, but wich undoudtedly will leavenobody indifferent, and that is something few books can achieve.
